Justification of knowledge
Correspondance: comparing with the facts of senses, experience and knowledge.
Pragmatic: what you know that can justify your personal belief.
Coherence: by defenition.

Truth Test: PIE

Public: everyone has access to the knowledge claim, is it true to society?
Independent: personal and sole access to the knowledge claim, is it true to you?
Internal: will it still be true over time?

Universal truth is when all of PIE is answered to with a 'yes'.
